Toegepaste Statistiek 2 / Applied Statistics 2 (FEB12005)1 Lecture 1.1
Four steps for hypothesis testing:
1. Formulate the hypotheses.
2. Calculate the test statistic.
3. Make a decision rule of when to reject the hypothesis.
− Fix significance level α
− Use rejection region or P-value.
4. Draw your conclusion.
1.1 One-sample z test
If we have observations from a normal distribution with unknown mean µ and known standard deviation σ, what can we say about µ? Does
µ = µ0 ? Look at the sample mean.
From a population with N (µ, σ) distribution, draw a random sample of n observations.
The sample mean X follows the N µ, √σn distribution.
X−µ
Then z = √
σ/ n
follows the standard normal N (0, 1) distribution.
Standardisation: Subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.
Central Limit Theorem: If the data are not normally distributed.
From any population (not necessarily normal) with mean µ and standard deviation σ. A random
sample of n observations,
√ where n is sufficiently large. The distribution of the sample mean X is
approximately N µ, σ/ n .
If we observe the sample mean of a random sample, which comes from a population with unknown mean µ and known standard deviation
σ, what can we say about µ? Does µ = µ0 ? If the distribution of the random sample is not normal, this test is only an approximation for large n.
Manufacturers want to know whether the average active ingredient in a type of pills is 50 mg. They take n = 100 samples from the pill
production and measures the sampled average active ingredient to be 50.22 mg.
Assume the active ingredient in each pill is normally distributed with unknown mean µ and known standard deviation σ = 1.
Suppose µ = 50.

Possible decision rule: reject µ = 50 if X is below 49.8 or above 50.2, in other words, if Z = √
σ/ n
is below -2 or above 2.
Significance level: When H0 is true, Z ∼ N (0, 1), there is still a small probability that Z < −2 or Z > 2, hence H0 will
be rejected.
Critical values: −z ∗ = −1.96 and z ∗ = 1.96 at significance level α = 0.05.

1.4 z test based on rejection region
Manufacturers want to know whether the average active ingredient in a type of pills is 50 mg. They take n = 100 samples from the pill
production and measures the sampled average active ingredient to be 50.22 mg.
Assume the active ingredient in each pill is normally distributed with unknown mean µ and known standard deviation σ = 1.

Idea: If H0 is true, z should not be an unlikely value.
The p-value is 2P (Z ≥ |z|) = 2P (Z ≥ 2.2) = 0.0278 < α = 0.05
3. If P-value < significance level α, then H0 is rejected.
4. Hence H0 is rejected at the 5% significance level. Conclusion: the amount of the active ingredient is likely to differ from 50 mg.
P-value: If H0 is true, the probability that the test statistic would be as extreme or more extreme than the
observed value. Extreme means deviating from H0 in the direction of Ha .
The smaller the P-value, the stronger the evidence against H0 .

Probability for a Type I error = significance level α.
Fix α: the fewer Type II errors, the better the test (higher power).

1.8 One-sample t test
The one-sample t test answers the question: If we have observations from a normal distribution with unknown mean µ and unknown standard
deviation σ, what can we say about µ? Does µ = µ0 ?
We can estimate σ with the sample standard deviation s.
From a population with the N (µ, σ) distribution, draw a random sample of n observations.

Then T = √
s/ n
follows the t (n − 1) distribution.
As n grows large, the t (n − 1) distribution resembles the N (0, 1) distribution closely.

4. H0 is rejected at the 5% significance level. Conclusion: the amount of the active ingredient is likely to differ from 50 mg.
1.9 One-sample t test and non-normality
Test is based on normal distribution of the data.
Mean and standard deviation are sensitive to outliers, hence also the t statistic.

, But one-sample t test can still be used if there are no outliers and
− n sufficiently large (n > 100)
− n moderate (20 ≤ n ≤ 100) and little skewness
− n small (n < 20) and data approximately normally distributed.
1.10 Matched pairs t test
Matched pairs t test answers the question: There are two measurements for each individual in the population. Let µ1 and µ2 be their means.
If we observe these two measurements for a random sample, what can we say about µ1 and µ2 ? Does µ1 = µ2 ?
